Mother of Missing Babcock University Student Pleads for Help After Son Disappears
A distraught mother, Fijabi Oyindamola Omotayo, has taken to Facebook in tears, pleading with the public and security agencies to help find her missing son, Oladipupo Siwajuola, a student of Babcock University, Ilishan-Remo, Ogun State.
In a live video shared on the platform, Omotayo recounted the last time she saw her son. “Members of the public should please help tell Babcock University to produce my son. I dropped him off at the school myself on Sunday evening, but for the past three days, I have not been able to sleep as I cannot find my son,” she said…….CONTINUE READING
Omotayo added that her visit to the university yielded no concrete answers. “I was even at the school yesterday and they said that’s how students behave sometimes, that they might be within the school premises but hiding themselves… Babcock University should please help find my son.”
In an earlier written post, she further expressed frustration over the university’s alleged lack of transparency: “Babcock University, Ilishan, could you please inform me about the whereabouts of my son, Oladipupo Siwajuola? Can you explain why Lampard and Tobi, who were the last to see him, are being shielded? It has been over 72 hours since I last spoke to my son.
“I personally dropped him off at school on Monday, April 27, as I always do, and I have been unable to locate him since then. Please provide information about my son’s whereabouts. My family and I should not suffer due to your lack of accountability. My son is not a piece of furniture.”
Responding to the growing concern, Emmanuel Ojo, Special Assistant on New Media to Ogun State Governor Dapo Abiodun, said in a Facebook post that the matter had been brought to the attention of state authorities.
“Madam Fijabi Oyindamola Omotayo, I just got off the phone with the State Commissioner for Education, who had earlier spoken with the Vice-Chancellor of the university to find out what is going on and what has been done so far.
“According to the VC, this is the first time he’s heard about the issue. He now has your son’s name, picture, the videos you’ve shared, and some other relevant updates. He has assured us that he will look into the matter immediately.
“Security agencies are also involved, and by God’s grace, this will be resolved positively and soon,” Ojo wrote.
